In the end, the jade cicada was bought by Old Man Huang at a price of 1.35 million. Old Man Huang, who took the photo of the jade cicada, was obviously in a good mood. He no longer felt the embarrassment just now, and his face was filled with smiles again.
Seeing how excited he was, Chen Ran couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. This jade cicada was worth not to mention 1.35 million, but even 200,000. I don't know if it was worth it. Old Man Huang paid six times the real price.
When he was photographed, he was still trembling. It was no different from selling him and counting the money.
"The deal is done on the 2nd, friends who are interested in the 3rd can make bids."
The auction number one is the cloisonné copper tower, number two is the jade cicada, and number three is the pair of moon bottles that Chen Ran identified as one genuine and one fake. After the monk shouted this, not a single person in the venue said a word.
None, but this is because almost everyone present has some discernment and can almost see that one of the pair of moon bottles is fake. If a fake one appears, they are naturally not sure that the other one is real.
It was fake, and in the end this embarrassing scene occurred.
The monk himself obviously did not expect this situation, but he was not stupid. After looking at it, he knew that everyone present saw that one of his pair of moon bottles was fake, so he coughed twice and simply put it away.
He waved his hand and asked people to carry the pair of moon bottles down.
But before his people could carry the pair of moon bottles down, a voice suddenly came: "Don't carry them down, just transfer the 150,000 yuan to me directly."
The person who said this was clearly Liu Lei. Liu Lei was proficient in porcelain. He also saw the pair of moon-holding bottles. One of them was a high imitation, while the other was an authentic product from the Kangxi period. These two moon-holding bottles were
The auction reserve price of the bottle is 250,000 yuan. If the pair of moon bottles are genuine, this reserve price is normal, but one of them is fake, which is too high. Therefore, during the auction, Liu Lei did not say anything and waited until
When the monk was about to hug her, he asked for 150,000 yuan and accepted it directly.
Only one of the pair of moon bottles is genuine, and its price is about 150,000 to 200,000 yuan. However, this is an underground black market transaction after all, and the price is generally lower. 150,000 yuan is still enough, so the monk
Without thinking twice, I directly handed over the pair of moon bottles to Liu Lei.
Lot No. 4 is the Ming Cheng Hua Dou Cai dragon pattern plum vase. This plum vase is a serious old thing, but it is a little damaged, which has slightly reduced its value. It was sold by Mr. Lin at a price of 450,000.
Went.
Later, the monk took pictures of two or three more items. For these two or three items, not only Chen Ran and Zhu Feng did not take action, but also everyone else became quiet. Only two or three people were bidding, and they were obviously watching.
That Tianhuang Arhat statue.
Sure enough, when the Tianhuang Arhat Statue was auctioned, the scene suddenly became heated, and everyone started bidding with red necks. In less than a while, the price reached more than three million.
Chen Ran, Wang Zhiqing, and Zhu Feng all looked at a group of people with red eyes bidding for something that was not worth so much money as if they were watching a show. This scene really seemed like... watching a show. At first, it was actually
Zhu Feng was also a little moved, but when he thought about Chen Ran's words, he gave up. Although he didn't care much about the money, it was not how money was spent. If it was really an eyesore, he would be taken advantage of.
Liu Lei was obviously determined to win this Tianhuang Arhat Statue. Among the bidders, he was almost the most aggressive. Seeing this, Wang Zhiqing quickly sent a text message to this guy. The two of them
After all, they had grown up naked together, so naturally they couldn't bear to see this guy suffer such a big loss.
Liu Lei was busy bidding, so he didn't even bother to read Wang Zhiqing's text message. Wang Zhiqing was so anxious that he wanted to slap him in the face. Fortunately, after ringing his phone for more than a dozen times, he finally noticed that someone was calling him.
Then he took out the phone and took a look. When he saw that they were all missed calls from Wang Zhiqing, he immediately looked at Wang Zhiqing strangely. However, he was not stupid. After thinking about it, he could naturally understand why Wang Zhiqing didn't directly
Instead of talking to him, he shocked him with the phone call. He quickly looked away at Wang Zhiqing and calmly read the text message Wang Zhiqing sent him.
Wang Zhiqing didn't know what Liu Lei was thinking after reading the text message, but he saw Liu Lei almost falling down.
Without Liu Lei bidding, the scene was somewhat affected. At least it was not as brutal as before. In the end, the Tianhuang Arhat statue was sold for 4.2 million. This price was obviously lower than the monk expected.
He called two or three times in succession until no one said anything, then reluctantly announced the deal.
The person who took the photo of this Tianhuang Arhat statue was a boss named Xiong.
"Now there is only one last thing left. This candlestick has been authenticated, but I have not identified its age. However, it is definitely an old thing. It was brought out of the ground in a serious manner. It is not too much.
It’s valuable, but at least it’s an old item. Let’s set the base price at 3,000 yuan. Each increase in price will be no less than 1,000 yuan. Friends who are interested should hurry up and buy it!”
The Tianhuang Arhat Statue did not fetch the ideal price, which just made the monk regretful. After the regret, he became happy. The actual value of the Tianhuang Arhat Statue was only eight or nine hundred thousand. Now it is sold for
More than four million, even after excluding the cost and work fees, he made a lot of money. How could he not be happy? When he was happy, he did not forget that there was another one, although this candlestick was not too valuable.
, but if he sells it for 10,000 yuan, it will be enough for him to support his wife and children every month.
But after he finished shouting, no one in the venue said a word. Several people even shook their heads after hearing him finish shouting. Obviously, they were not very interested in the candlestick. Not many people were interested in it, so he still
I directly quoted a base price of three thousand yuan. How could anyone want it? Don't look at the people here. Tens of thousands of yuan is nothing to them, but they will not spend such unjust money.
"Three thousand yuan, I want it!"
After a long while, no one said anything. Just when the monk was about to wave his hand and count it as a failed shot, a voice suddenly came from the venue!
The person who shouted this was clearly Chen Ran.
The reason why he called out the price at this time was because the reserve price quoted by the monk made him a little stunned. When appreciating other objects, in addition to the serial number, there was also a reserve price written below. The reserve price was also several hundred thousand.
There are millions of dollars, but this candlestick may be a monk and he doesn't take it seriously, so he doesn't write the minimum price. However, Chen Ran detects that this candlestick is definitely a rare and exquisite product, so he thinks that the minimum price of this candlestick is
It will definitely not be lower. It may be because the items are the best, so the monk did not write down the reserve price.
Unexpectedly, the monk suddenly quoted a base price of three thousand yuan. Chen Ran was stunned for a moment, but then he understood what was going on. It was obvious that the monk did not know the goods at all, so he gave up this most valuable item.
Things are regarded as the things with the lowest value.
As a result, how could Chen Ran not be excited? After reacting, he immediately quoted the price. Of course, although he was excited in his heart, he could not tell anything from the surface. When he quoted the price, he did not rush to shout out.
.
Chen Ran's bid surprised everyone present. After the incident of Old Man Huang asking Chen Ran to appraise treasures, everyone admired Chen Ran very much. Even when appreciating the things the monk brought, they all observed Chen Ran.
Ran's face, but in the end, they didn't see anything from Chen Ran's face. During the entire auction process, Chen Ran didn't speak once, which made everyone gradually ignore Chen Ran's existence.
Unexpectedly, at the end of the day, Chen Ran suddenly took action.
Is there something special about this candlestick?
Of course, this was just a conditioned reflex thought that flashed through the minds of the people present. If the item Chen Ran was bidding on was not a candlestick, I'm afraid they really thought so, but now the item Chen Ran was bidding on was,
But it was a candlestick that made them all lose interest.
This was the thought of most people present, but there were exceptions. Zhu Feng and Wang Zhiqing were the exceptions. When the two of them heard Chen Ran's sudden bid, they immediately looked at the candlesticks placed in front of them suspiciously. Of course
, based on the relationship between the two of them and Chen Ran, even if they had doubts in their hearts, they would naturally not say anything at this time, or participate in the bidding.
"This friend bids 3,000 yuan. Is there any other friend who bids?"
Seeing that no one in the audience followed the bidding, the monk started shouting again, but no one said anything after he shouted again.
"Are there no friends to bid?"
Perhaps three thousand yuan was not enough to send home to support his wife and children, so the monk shouted unwillingly.
"It's just a few thousand dollars. No one wants it anymore. Why are you shouting? Hurry up and seal the deal so that everyone can go home and sleep. What time is it?" When the monk wanted to shout again, Old Man Huang immediately stopped.
He waved his hand patiently, and while waving, he glanced at Chen Ran with disdain, as if it was embarrassing for Chen Ran to take a photo of such a cheap candlestick.
After Old Man Huang finished speaking, others also joined in. Among them, Boss Xiong took a picture of Yang Originator's Tianhuang work. He was obviously very happy, and he also greeted everyone. When it was over, he invited everyone to eat, which annoyed everyone present.
Some people applauded.
"Okay, then this candlestick belongs to this friend!"
At this point, the monk could only immediately announce that the auction was over.
This candlestick is already the last one. After the auction, it means that this treasure appraisal activity has come to a complete end. The next step is to pay the money to the monk in exchange for the items taken.
Because Chen Ran was suddenly called out by Wang Zhiqing, thinking that he might have to spend money, he changed all the money in his bank card into cash. It was just right now. Among the transactions at the scene, the price of his candlestick was the lowest.
It was most convenient. I found out 3,000 yuan and handed it over to the monk. It was regarded as clearing both money and goods.
Of course, this candlestick naturally fell into Chen Ran's hands.
Holding the candlestick in his hand, Chen Ran quickly observed the candlestick carefully, but he couldn't see anything. Others gathered around the monk to pay for the items he took, and Chen Ran was pushed aside.
, I didn’t pay attention for a moment, and suddenly bumped into something.
Looking back, Chen Ran realized that what he encountered was the large box that the monk's two men were carrying when he entered.
The big box was open. When Chen Ran looked over, he found that there were some scattered small things in the box. They might not be valuable, so the monk didn't take them out. In fact, this was indeed the case.
The items left in the box were all worth no more than one thousand. On such an occasion, the monk was too embarrassed to put them up for auction, so he only took out items worth thousands.
Out of curiosity, Chen Ran also glanced at the contents of the box. This time, he suddenly discovered a strange thing...
